Summary, etc Huanhuan Shi, Shrihari Sridhar, Rajdeep Grewal, & Gary Lilien<br/>Sales Representative Departures and<br/>Customer Reassignment Strategies in<br/>Business-to-Business Markets<br/>When a sales representative (rep) leaves a business-to-business<br/>fi<br/>rm, a crucial link with the rep<br/>’<br/>s customers becomes<br/>severed. The<br/>fi<br/>rm reassigns those customers to different sales reps (either existing reps or new hires) in a manner that<br/>mitigates potential sales losses. What causal effect do sales rep departures have on customer-level revenue, and<br/>which sales rep replacement strategies are more effective? Using data from a<br/>Fortune<br/>500<br/>fi<br/>rm and a difference-in-<br/>differences analysis with correction for selection bias, the authors show that sales rep transitions lead to 13.2%<br/>–<br/>17.6%<br/>losses in annual sales. New hires are less effective than existing sales reps in mitigating sales losses. Existing sales<br/>reps who are similar (vs. dissimilar) to the departing reps (in terms of past industry experience) are more effective in<br/>mitigating sales losses; however, reps with high past performance do not exhibit greater ef<br/>fi<br/>cacy for mitigating sales<br/>losses than reps with average or low past performance. The analysis presents means to quantify the economic<br/>consequences of losing a sales rep and to determine how to reassign customers to sales reps according to the<br/>resulting economic impact
